Prip-Møller Collection

This is a collection of photographs (positives in glass frames) and hand-written notes. Many photographs were re-printed in the book Chinese Buddhist monasteries : their plan and its function as a setting for Buddhist monastic life published in 1937.

The collection is believed to be the research on Chinese Temples carried out by the Danish architect, Dr. Johannes Prip-Møller (1889-1943). Dr. Prip-Møller studied Chinese temple architecture and incorporated Chinese forms into his designs. His works include the building for Tao Fong Shan Christian Centre in Hong Kong.
